Review distinguishes two major stromatoporoid-grade episodes and warns against treating the intervening gap as one continuous clade range.
Claim ledger
fossil-range · lowStromatoporoidea has no published scalar range here: the reviewed record comprises a Palaeozoic Ordovician–Late Devonian episode and a separate Late Triassic–Cretaceous, rarely Cenozoic, stromatoporoid-grade episode, so the former 485–359 Ma continuous display is withheld.
